    Camden Yard in Baltimore is pretty cool, also the Plaza de Toros in Madrid for bullfighting is probably the most unique place I've ever been. After the fight there was a small riot and cops had to be deployed with those clear shields and stuff, pretty crazy.

    Love Camden Yards and COmerica. Can do without Wrigley, aside from the history. And Fenway is awesome.
    Been to stadiums all over the country, but my favorite by far is the University of San Diego football stadium.
    It's a small, I-AA stadium, but is built into the side of what in the Midwest we'd consider a mountain in the mission district of San Diego.
    Beautiful scenery and great atmosphere for football, especially when jim Harbaugh was there.
    Petco Park is cool, too.
    Hate Butler, but HInkle Fieldhouse is a pretty kick a#$ old house to watch hoops, in.

    Lambeau is very cool. Going to Wrigley this summer for a Tiger game, should be fun.
    It makes no sense being pessimistic, it wouldn’t help anyway!

    Just am not impressed. The fans are a big part of any ballpark, obviously that one is full of douches. I just don't see anything about it that makes it so special, other than it being old

    Not including the local sports venues the out of state ones I have been to are mainly NHL rinks and my top 5 would have to be

    1. Belle Centre (Habs)
    2. Consol Energy Centre (Pens)
    3. Air Canada Centre (Leafs)
    4. HSBC (Sabres)
    5. Pepsi Center (Avs)

    Cant wait till the Wings finally get a new rink because they have the one of the worst I have ever been to.

    The ARENA Amsterdam for numerous Ajax Games from 1997-2003 been there 4 times....it's an absolute amazing soccer stadium....the had the chip cards for concessions (like you get at the arcades now back in 1997...)

    Durham Bulls home stadium is kind of a cool minor league park
    PNC Park Philly was nice - was there for it's opening Barcelona v. Man Utd in 2003
    Wrigley is fun too....real close to the game
